Hideo Kojima and Sony PlayStation: The Controversy Over Policenauts and Female Breasts

Hideo Kojima didn’t just make Death Stranding and Metal Gear. Once upon a time, the creator had to deal with the specific policy of Sony PlayStation on issues of female breasts

Hideo Kojima has a Policenauts project in his portfolio. When it came to releasing it on PlayStation, certain difficulties arose.

The fact is that Policenauts contains some very juicy content. The player can use the “touch” action, including on the female breast, which will react accordingly to the touch.

During one of Hideo Kojima’s interviews rememberedthat this moment caused some concern at Sony PlayStation:

«I was contacted by Sony who told me that at an upcoming meeting it will be decided how many times it will be possible to animate touching the chest. I argued with them, assuring them that nothing needed to be changed. In the end we worked it out, but there was still an unpleasant aftertaste».

As a result, Policenauts for PlayStation managed to preserve the animation of touching a woman’s breast, but the amplitude of the response oscillation suffered and had to be reduced.
